Hello, I like the 70º Pentax XW line so much that I've bought all the oculars over the years, I wander if there is an online shop in the EU where I can buy a case to store all of them. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance!

Greetings, I've been using an Orion XX14g with goto+skyfi+SkySafari app for a few years with good results. But the scope is quite heavy and difficult to setup. As I live in Europe I've been looking at the Skyvision T400C f4 or DocTelescope 20" f3.3 LaserMax II series. What I would require at this point is a telescope that: 1- Has a bigger aperture than the Orion XX14g. 2- It is easier to setup by one person. 3- Fits into a Tesla Model 3 4- Has a higher quality optic than the Orion (Sthrel ratio of 0.9 or better would be nice). 5- Resists gusts of wind. 6- Eyepiece height should not exceed 171cm (67 inches). 7- Has a goto system compatible with SkySafari app or equivalent. 8- Has a Feathertouch focuser (I have a Paracorr type 2 but possibly I would buy SIPS unit if it supports my Nikon NAV HW 12 eyepiece). 9- Has a reasonable delivery time. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Because for the weakness of the Japonese yen, I bought my NAV-HW directly from Japan at Kokusai Kohki, I highly recommend it. Barry is a great guy and his attention to international customers is second to none. In the end, owning a NAV-HW can be a cheaper deal than owning an Ethos, because the dollar is strong now. and NAV-HW is generally considered to be as good if not better than the Ethos, plus you get two focal lenght per eyepiece.

Thank you John, oddly enough, I'll end up with an eyepiece full of diversity, as I'm relatively new to the hobby, I like to try different brands and models.

Can't edit my previous post, I've finally bought this eyepiece case from teleskop service, I still need to figure out the right configuration, will do so when my Nikon HW 17mm and my Pentax XW 5 arrive this week. The HW 17 will replace the Sywatcher SWA 22 and soon a 31mm Nagler might replace the Hyperion 36

These maplin cases look sweet, unfortunately they don't ship to Spain, do you know a store that does?
